SPQR Blues Chapter V: XX

Here's the installment I drew Friday at Carmine Street Comics. I also just updated the previous comic.


I'll work on some weekend extras today and tomorrow. I'm still swamped with freelance projects, so will have to balance out the time between them and the fun, Roman stuff!

On the Artistic Process (or not): Mirror image

While drawing today's comic, I was thinking again about what I wrote in this post:


In working on facial expressions, I learned that I move my eyes in the opposite way from how people are “supposed” to (rather, tend to) shift their gazes when remembering something they’ve seen as opposed to imagining something. Hmmm...I wonder if this makes me look shifty-eyed?

I've realised that, if I'm trying to figure out a facial expression or a pose, I tend to mimic it in mirror image. I'm not sure what this says about whether my brain has been retrained to work backward. Maybe it' a profound observation of the artistic process. Or just a wonky personal quirk.


Today's goal is to post a new comic before supper. I eat late :)

SPQR Blues Chapter V: IV - An extra tenant

This week I should be able to post the comics early for Patrons (Tuesday and Thursday, if the inking goes well), plus some extras (colour comic, etc.!).

I'm going to redraw that last panel at some point. It didn't go at all the way I wanted.

SPQR Blues Chapter IV: CCLIX

Here's Monday's comic early, since I'm still working on the long-promised Sunday comics. (And the art requests! For those who haven't had a chance to request art yet, please stand by, I'll be in touch during the week!)

In about 3 seconds Iusta was going to see if showing him what an actual hysterical woman looks like would have been any help in getting what she wants.

One of the folks on LJ made an interesting comment about the previous comic:

"Nine days and still in refugee accommodations? I have a suspicion that Justa isn't used to being an adult on her own. Calatoria Themis would have sent messengers here there and everywhere to all kinds of people for help and assistance and probably would have been invited to some villa by now. Justa is waiting for someone to deal with things, because despite her father's 'businessman's wife' line, she isn't ready to use what clout she has (and she certainly has some as her rich husband's wife/widow)."

I have to agree that's true--she's only using her clout to try to find someone who will take care of things for her. That might be about to change.

Hey, look, Monday's comic, eight minutes early.... Actually, I should be able to post Wednesday's comic on Tuesday for a patrons-only preview, if all goes well with the inking.

For some reason it was very hard to draw this one! The next row (maybe I can get it done tomorrow?), I consider to be part of this comic, not a new comic :)
